Incorrect feed configuration

Check spelling and notes while editing feed under the Content to show field. For example, you probably added empty space or @ symbol which is not needed. Or you added account name that doesn’t exist etc.

Facebook Token is expired

User access tokens come in two forms: short-lived tokens and long-lived tokens. Short-lived tokens usually have a lifetime of about an hour or two, while long-lived tokens usually have a lifetime of about 60 days.

Basically, if people visit your website regularly Flow-Flow extends your token automatically. So you don’t need to take any additional actions. Otherwise, you need to check that your token is live and re-generate it if necessary.
